We ate often at the Restaurant when it was on North Avenue. The food there was wonderful. At the new Restaurant in Addison, the service is great and the Restaurant is beautiful. However, the food leaves much to be desired. The sauce was watery and had no spices. The side dish was lumpy mashed potatoes. Normally, pasta is served as... more

Blown away by this place. That simple. Can't wait to get back. Stopped in with co-workers travelling on business. Reluctantly took the hotel desk clerks advice - because we're sick of Italian. Every hotel has an Italian restaurant near by and everyone says it's "the best". Blah, blah, blah. Pizza, spaghetti, calzones.... We were stunned by this place. The menu... more

For those of you who have complained about Venuti's, I think you are nuts. Obviously you don't go out much and wanted them to treat your presence with a red carpet. Valet guys were Super POLITE, we went to the lounge to see a band and there are a LOT of tables and a LOT of bar seating. Food was... more

We went to this restaurant on a Friday night at 9:00 p.m. to see a band that we love to watch. We didn't know that you needed a reservation for the bar area. There are very few tables and they were all reserved. My son, who was extremely hungry as he had just come from work, said why don't we... more

Went for Sunday lunch. No-one in the place. Ordered bar vodka on the rocks. Instead of our waiter, Hunter, telling us they have no bar vodka they preceeded to bring Grey Goose at 10 bucks a crack. Three drinks cost more than our lunch. Complained to the waiter and called the manager, Frank Venuti who was extremely rude. No wonder... more

Can't stand this place!!! You can't even pull in the lot without being hassled by the parking jerks. They offer "free valet". You can't park anywhere on their lot without being hassled. Too bad. I have eaten in the dining room once or twice and it was good. The V lounge was awesome when they first opened it. They had... more

The food here is excellent. the atmosphere is elegant. nice lounge across the restaurant with a great bar and music to dance to. There is even an outdoor area . This is true italian great food. more

They are no longer on North Ave in Villa Park - where the food was excellent. They are now somewhere near Itasca - and we heard the food quality went down-hill. more

I was appalled to say the least. While the decor of the restaurent looked very inviting, we were treated by an extremely rude hostess. Needless to say, my valentines weekend dinner was ruined. After paying the bill we were asked to leave the restaurent for no apparent reason, when we retired for after dinner drinks at the bar. Moreover, we... more
